Note

Do not plug anything into a Smart Plug which needs to remain on all of the time such as a fridge or freezer. The Smart Plugs may intermittently turn off, causing anything that you plug into it to also turn off.

Installing the PlugLock

The PlugLock is used in HMOs and commercial buildings as a tamper-proof option for the Genius Smart Plug. 

...

There are 2 ways to install the PlugLock with either the Smart Plug (Single Band) or Smart Plug (Dual Band):

  1. (Preferred) If the Smart Plug is being installed into a 1-Gang, Unswitched Socket:
    1. Unscrew the pattress screws holding the socket into the pattress.
    2. Install the Smart Plug and fit the PlugLock around the Smart Plug, lining up the PlugLock screw holes with the socket screw holes.
    3. Re-install the pattress screws through both the PlugLock and socket. This will mean that the Smart Plug can now only be removed by unscrewing the pattress screws.
  2. If using a 2-Gang or Switched Socket, they will likely not have screw holes which line up with the PlugLock as there is no standard placement for these, and so:

    1. Install the Smart Plug into the socket
    2. Install up to 3 of the adhesive pads provided and fix these onto the flat sections highlighted in grey in the image above. Remove the paper covers from the visible side.
    3. Carefully line up the PlugLock on the Smart Plug, and firmly push the PlugLock onto the socket.
